// A blend of Chavigne, Saint-Véran and Pouilly-Fuissé (including some 1er Cru)
The first, gentle pressings of the younger vines and the firmer, later pressings of the old vines. Fermented and aged in concrete, this is deep, fleshy yet with superb structure and drive. To say that this over-delivers is the understatement of the year. Enjoy it while it lasts!
“This masterful wine counts as one of the entry points for Guffens-Heynen, but it is a tour de force. There is a marked reduction to the initial attack, followed by aromas of grapefruit and passion fruit, with a hint of white flowers. The texture is firm and round, yet dynamic and fresh. The grapes were picked just before the rain, then fermented and matured in concrete to accentuate the fruit. A delightful wine." - 93 Points, Charles Curtis MW, Decanter
